Skullcandy has released three styles engineered exclusively for women - the Knockout ($99), the Bombshell ($49), and the Dime ($29) - all designed and cushioned with females in mind

Research conducted at the Indiana University School of Medicine found that men listen with only one side of their brains, while women use both, causing them have different responses while listening to the same music.

These anatomical, acoustical, and behavioral differences in how women experience sound causes women to be more sensitive to high-pitched sounds than men are. Women are also able to more accurately hear soft sounds.
